For many years, I stuck to the idea that my suffering was because of my size. I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts, and rejections with it.      Many weight-conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. Perhaps our worst mistake is to believe that being thin equals being loved, being special, and being cherished (珍爱). We fantasize (幻想) about what it will be like when we reach the long-awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there.       But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally realize its promise of everlasting happiness, self-worth, and of course, love.      It took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beauty standards are different with culture. In Samoa, a woman is not considered attractive unless she weights more than 200 pounds. More importantly, if it"s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us work hard to change our body, but in vain. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.
1. The passage tries to make the readers realize the importance of _____.
[     ]
A. attitudes toward ourselves B. culture difference C. body size D. different beauty standards

[     ]
A. Lose all your wounds with your weight B. Beauty: standard varies with culture C. Change your attitude rather than your shape D. It will be different next time

Is there anything more important than health? I don"t think so. "Health is the greatest wealth (财富)," wise people say. You can"t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill. If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed. After that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is follow his advice.      Speaking about doctor"s advice, I can"t help telling you a funny story.      An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule:"Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is." The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn"t smoke more than one cigarette a day.      A month later the gentleman came into the doctor"s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.      "But you know, doctor," he said, "it"s not easy to begin smoking at my age."

The mothers met while walking their beloved dogs in the local park, the Donald Mcdonald Reserve, several years ago and developed a friendship that began with small talk about their pets. This quickly turned to afternoon get-together, where kids, dogs and grown-ups formed firm friendships.      Now the pair and their pets meet several times a week on the grass near Sandringham College, a place for a huge network of dog owners who have formed all kinds of friendships and a good old-fashioned sense of community. Dogs, it seem, are good for social life.      The combination (结合) of excited kids and dogs could be a recipe (处方) for disaster and Miller says it is surprisingly harmonious (和谐的). "There are some other people who don"t have kids but have started to meet us quite regularly," she says. "the other day, there were seven dogs, five adults and six children all walking around the park together."      Friendships formed through pets seem to cross cultural and age barriers (阻碍) and often include helping when someone is sick or needs help to care for a bet. A woman says she"s answered several SOS calls from elderly people who have become ill suddenly and need a help. "The friendships are such that you see these people every day and you get to know them and they trust you with their pets and know they can call you at the last minute," she says.      One dog owner says that, even as a child, she noticed how dogs could act as conversational ice-breakers for adults. Like people, dogs are also social creatures. "Dogs need to meet others," she says, "they are pack animals."

Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don"t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don"t last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.     Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven"t been honest, you may lose your friend"s trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly.     Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.      Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with each other. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend"s place so that you can understand the problem better.     No two friendships are exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common.
